U.  S.  Department  of  Agriculture, 

Office  of  the  Secretary. 

During  the  existence  of  the  quarantine  to  prevent  the  spread  of  foot- 
and-mouth  disease  in  cattle,  sheep,  other  ruminants,  and  swine,  as 
provided  in  Rule  6,  Revision  1,  and  amendments  thereto,  shipments 
may  be  made  by  rail  of  hay,  straw,  or  similar  fodder,  and  of  hides, 
skins,  and  hoofs  of  cattle,  sheep,  and  other  ruminants,  which  originate 
in  a  quarantined  State,  destined  to  another  point  in  the  same  State, 
but  which,  through  the  exigencies  of  travel,  are  transported  through 
adjacent  States,  provided  that  such  shipments  are  not  unloaded  en 
route  in  any  State  other  than  the  State  of  origin,  except  in  certain 
yards  or  sheds  to  be  designated  by  the  Chief  of  the  Bureau  of  Animal 
Industry. 

Shipments  may  therefore  be  made  as  above  specified  without  disin- 
fection and  without  certification  by  the  Bureau  of  Animal  Industry. 

Rule  6,  Revision  1,  and  amendments  thereto,  numbered,  respectively, 
1,  2,  3,  and  4,  are  hereby  amended  accordingly. 

This  amendment  is  effective  on  and  after  December  15,  1908,  and  is 
subject  to  amendment  or  revision  on  statutory  notice. 

Done  at  Washington  this  fifteenth  day  of  De- 
cember, 1908. 

Witness  my  hand  and  the  seal  of  the  Depart- 
ment of  Agriculture. 

James  Wilson,
